Windows 10: problem downloading any apps on windows 10

hi people, thanks for reading


got a issue with my windows 10 laptop.

im having major issues with the microsoft store updating any app or downloading new ones.


ive tried

1. dism / sfc

2. wsreset

3. used a fresh profile / local admin

4. removed and installed the store and all windows apps via powershell. getting the same error when installing any apps

5. started relevant services and renamed software distribution folder

6. changed permissions on windowsapps folder - made myself owner


something unexpected happened.


Code: 0x80073CFE


so i tried installing an app on another device (usb) and worked fine


i tried to move the app via settings and got the same error message!


tried changing default device for installing new apps and apps installed fine!

therefore im presuming theres some sort of issue with me saving to this folder on the local drive,


can anyone help?

:)

 

Windows 10 forced download

I actually had a client call yesterday with an email problem. when I tried walking him through some steps, he says "Yeah, I don't see that there, but I think it's because it's updated to windows 10. It did that a few weeks ago. I came back in on Monday, and it said Welcome to Windows 10"..... I think I'd throw the computer out the window.

 

$.10 android apps

Not sure if anyone's seen this yet, but they have $.10 (yes, 10 cents) android apps on the Android Market to celebrate 10 BILLION downloads. So far I've picked up Tetris, Need for Speed Shift, SoundHound amd ADWLauncher EX. There were several other games that were listed, including ones too good for my phone *Frown

 

Windows 10 forgets default apps

I have noticed like not 5mins ago that Winamp just got kicked out of my default apps list in Windows 10 Pro.
I installed this installation not max 3 weeks ago with fresh downloaded Windows 10 Pro using Microsoft Media Creation Tool, is there a way to fix this bcs I using sfc /scannow don't do a lot for me and I have run it before on this installation.

Before u ask, I have fully updated my Windows 10 with all non-insider/beta updates.

The only thing I have disabled is the uac prompt that popup when u need admin for applications to run bcs it's simply annoying.

I don't remember having all these problems with Windows 8.1 Pro when i was using that and I am really thinking about going back so I can have "fully control" over Windows again with like disabling all the admin crap bcs I feel like it's messing more up and makes things less useful in Windows 10 with all these small problems I have and I read a lot of ppl having problems with various things time and time again where they needed to reinstall Win10 over and over to get it to work fully.

Any advice on how I can get Windows 10 to just work as a "daily driver" without all these small annoying things? *Frown
